the_o word_n of_o a_o false_a and_o hypocritical_a heart_n when_o they_o be_v speak_v by_o the_o nonconformist_n as_o for_o the_o downright_a thames-street_n way_n of_o rail_a against_o i_o which_o i_o be_o sure_a none_o of_o my_o friend_n will_v use_v and_o all_o other_o of_o any_o improve_a civility_n or_o good_a manner_n do_v nauscate_v and_o abhor_v but_o pure_a stream_n can_v flow_v from_o a_o impure_a fountain_n and_o so_o i_o be_o satisfy_v i_o do_v not_o value_v they_o nor_o can_v they_o prejudice_v any_o but_o the_o person_n from_o who_o they_o issue_v they_o that_o will_v be_v fling_v up_o dirt_n do_v manifest_o show_v themselves_o of_o a_o dirty_a humour_n and_o much_o good_a may_v do_v they_o whosoever_o they_o be_v with_o such_o their_o belove_a nastiness_n but_o

to_o be_v the_o worst_a because_o he_o have_v crooked_a leg_n or_o be_v like_a to_o origen_n enemy_n who_o find_v themselves_o unable_a to_o refute_v those_o pretend_a error_n thought_n to_o be_v
